I donno I 'am happy with my Cybernation Motorsports kit, but I also here South Florida Performance has some nice kits. I don't know about there kit on the Integra but if its like the one on the ep3 hatch it would be nice and has good pick up.

i have a teg with a drag kit on it. I am not too fond of their kits b/c of fitment issues and i didnt like some of their parts in the kit such as the inline FP, the bov, the wg, and the check valves. I had a lot of problems fitting the IC piping, moutning the IC, and cuttin the radiator fan housing, but it all works now. i upgraded to a tial bov, tial wg, missing link, 310's, an intank FP, and a vafc. I made good power though. 260whp at 6psi. i was surprised. Anyway, now i wont buy any kit other than Full-race kits.

It all depends on what you want to do. if you just want to boost a little and dont plan on making A LOT of power, Drag will be just fine. but if you want to make a lot of power and want to boost a lot, i would suggest Full-Race. But there are many different companies out there. my suggestion would be to research all your options and then choose what you want. most people peice their kits together so they get what they want, it might cost a little more, but its worth the self satisfaction.

Yea, btw make sure who ever tunes your car knows what they are doing. That will have a big part of how much whp and wtq you make. If I was to redure my car I would use the AEM Standalone System. Also, what ever you use to tune your car I would suggest using a dyno instead of street tunning.
